Do a little dance!

The holiday was fabulous! I received some scrappy stuff, a sewing machine, jewerly, and a camera!! Yup you heard me! A canon rebel XTi! It was a graduation/christmas present!

Here are some fun photos I wanted to share, that I took with the new camera too!

Aren't my pups precious? The first one is hard to handle, but love her. Well, I'm off to finish unpacking and putting all my gifts to use! Thanks for stopping by!

Moving on up!

That is a song right?! haha. I just thought of that as I was thinking about my recent move! I have fun pictures to share!

Here is Jake and I. Snow was everywhere! Throughout the entire drive from California to Texas! I had packed the snow boots too!

New Mexico! Those are houses! I thought they were pretty cool!

More New Mexico! The plateaus were cool to look at.

Okay, so here is the story. Jake noticed that one of my tires was cracked, so we stopped in Albequerque to replace all the tires. He was getting worried about having a tire blow out. I thought it was a good dollar spent. Here is my VERY full Betsey (all christmas presesnts :)) with new tires. haha. She did us well on our trip back, thankfully.

Arizona. Arizona wasn't as pretty to look at.

Well, my mom is coming to visit me today! I'm excited, I needed her expertise to bake some goods. Hopefully she can help me settle in to the new house, too! All my stuff comes tomorrow morning, so how many things do you think got broken on the ride down in the storage container? haha I'm crossing my fingers that nothing, but am realistic when I say, 4 things. *sigh*

Oh, I stopped by my new job! Aren't they pretty? I'm excited. Although, finishing school still hasn't set in. I still wake up wondering what I still need to study for. I have a feeling those will continue for some time :) haha

Have a great holiday and thanks for stopping by!

I PASSED

I passed my defense!!! As scarey as the whole defense process was, I still passed. I'm so excited. You can now call me Master Lauren. haha just kidding. I feels good. I feel taller. :) Oh, my bf came to help me move and watch me defend. It was great that he was there. My mom also was there. Not in person, but on the internet watching from a web cam! I hope I made them proud :)

I'm packing up my little storage unit today, worried sick that everything won't fit.

I hope all is well. Thanks for stopping by!
